With the NBA season about to tip off, the time is right to take a look at the annual survey of General Managers. The league asks the 30 men (maybe someday I’ll be writing “people”, but not yet) who run the teams for their anonymous views on a host of questions.
The results are here, though I’m going to comment only on responses pertaining to the Toronto Raptors.
The GMs guys are all-in on the Boston Celtics. The Raptors registered 10% of the votes in favour of their chances of finishing first in the Eastern Conference; Boston got the rest.
